Why hasn't one of our European friends pointed out the real reason that it's
so difficult to kick a ball into a 20 x 10 ft net.

I was abt to react on Rob's remark but I am not competent enough to debate on
the subject.
I guess the main problem is that there is a #@%*&! man who is standing in front
of the players right in the net. This kind of trouble does not exist in the
American Football, as far as I know.

Speaking of soccer, one of the rare oportunity I had to play soccer has been at
school during some "sport hour" and I was ... in the net ! I just remember 2
things of this day :

- I came back home with my white sweet a bit darker
- Not a single shot has entered "my" net :o))

Now, speaking of your (US) version of the soccer, the one you call "American
Football", it looks like a bit our rugby and by Jove, our rugby was here before
your A. Football !!
Hey, all UK cousins, all VK friends, I am calling for your help now (I am sorry
that there is no ZS among us ... !)
Rugby, that's what I call a sport for men ...
See what happened to Italy when they decided to join us at the "5 nations
Tournament" ...
Outch ... no offense intended on our Italian friends but well ... for sure they
are better at Soccer than at Rugby !

Ohh ... I guess I have reached now the bottom of my sport knowledge ... Boys, I
am so tired now, I have to take some rest after this brainstorming !

73/72!
